I won't give up Firefox, so I don't use their shit. Got plenty of my own options.

I tried that firefox for a couple of days, and it was really slow so i dumped it, lol.
maybe i should try BT with that broswer, huh?

Its automatic(default setting) but can be turned on or off best to put it back up after you finish torrenting
unless you have a security program like Norton..

I have Norton. I also have whatever Roadrunner does, and that's with the network, not on my computer. There's not turning it off. I've asked.

I forget so easily when i'm in something i can figure it out quick
and if i stop doing it i forget what i learned almost immediately
but can pick it rite up again.

Lower your fire walls the click off the torrent close it then go reload the file is all i can think of

Some times your pc wont notice a default change unless you turn it off then restart your computer

I may be the wrong person but the BT help page is good and
i'm helping all i can wish i retained better but i have a brain that
is always looking out the window for a different scene to view

Good Luck

what ya mean, like the only browster you can use is IE? Cuz I don't think RR limits you to only that. My friend uses one of those weird alternative browsers on her RR connection.

Do you know how to access its controls?

I'm sure there's a way to do it somehow if someone with technical knowledge sat down to do it, but of what was explained to me, it's something inhouse with them and not on my computer. I think the Lynksys has something, too, with it, because once we put that in WinMX stopped working for us (before it went closed shop). But now I have Morpheus and that works fine.

Don't sweat it, bro, It's downloading so we're making progress, lol.

Thanks for your help though, i appreciate it.
It is a video file so it's freakin huge. i'm in no hurry though, about to let it run and hit the sack.

Thanks again!

I have RR but not thier security programs (so im no help there)

Norton asks me if i want to allow the new thing i'm trying to load

Other than that i just have the standard XP IE firewalls they are easy to turn off.

Norton 2006

No Adware

Spybot

are my three securities and i think spybot is a waste Norton and Noadware catch everthing..

Yeah, the Firefox Ford mentioned.
It seemed like a really good browser, but it was slower than IE on my machine so i dumped it after a couple of days.

I'll call Time Warner tomorrow and ask some questions, but i'm getting the file i want so it's not like it isn't working.
i just wanted to get a green light if i could. thought maybe it would be faster.

Same here, all I have is the Norton programs and i never d/l'd the free stuff roadrunner.
if they have a firewall i can't control in place i'll be pissed though, lol.
norton asked me to allow the connection and i did, so maybe we're on track. it was just the Yellow light issue that bugged me, no biggie.
I already have the show i'm getting, it's just a much better quality one on JTT.
